Ultimo Pyrmont Precinct Plan

Ultimo Pyrmont Precinct Plan

The Ultimo Pyrmont Precinct is the largest urban renewal project in Australia. An area of 140 hectares of former docklands, maritime, industrial and medium density housing is being totally redeveloped within an urban design strategy prepared by Architectus.

The detailed precinct plan included special guidelines for historic areas within the overall project as well as commercial, retail, residential, mixed and recreational uses. Public and private transport studies, and infrastructure and commercial assessments were undertaken in conjunction with the Architectus Precinct Planning Study.

The study formed a primary basis of the subsequent Regional Environmental Plan and Urban Development Plan. The planning received a RAPI/PIA Award for Planning and Urban Design Excellence.
